New Capsule Hotel in Osaka<\/h1>\n

A new\u00a0capsule<\/a> hotel has opened in the heart of Osaka city that transports\u00a0visitors into a futuristic world. Featuring a minimalist design, visitors climb into single pods with special ambient lighting at bedtime. It also includes a special \u201csanitary lounge\u201d where travelers can kick back and relax after they have bathed and showered.<\/p>\n

Called 9h (nine hours) Capsule Hotel, the new opening is located in the neighbourhood of Namba, a bustling transportation hub where many of the area\u2019s main train stations are situated\u00a0\u2013 making it a good choice for travellers wishing to venture onwards to the likes of Tokyo or Kyoto.<\/p>\n

Futuristic Pods<\/h2>\n

The company already has chains in other locations across Japan, including Narita Airport, Sendai,\u00a0Kyoto<\/a>, and Tokyo, and with the first location having been opened in 2009, its name has become well known for the unique\u00a0capsule hotel experience. The latest offering has a\u00a0simple design and makes guests feel as if they have wandered into a stylish spaceship.<\/p>\n

The main feature is, of course, the capsules \u2013\u00a0futuristic pods that act as tiny rooms for single sleeping occupants. Inside they are simple, with a pillow, a mattress and a duvet, as well as a \u201csleep ambient\u201d control system for mood lighting.<\/p>\n

The Sanitary Lounge<\/h2>\n

9h Namba Station also has a new configuration to its layout that sees the locker room, showers, toilet and wash areas all being combined into one large space \u2013 which the hotel calls “the sanitary lounge” \u2013 to promote a relaxed feeling in the guests as they use the facilities.<\/p>\n

If you’re the type of traveller who packs light, you’ll like the back-to-basics approach, as guests can find\u00a0bath towels,\u00a0face towels, lounge-wear and toothbrushes in assigned lockers,\u00a0while necessities such as shampoo and soap are provided in the showers. Visitors can store their belongings in these lockers, with oversized\u00a0luggage\u00a0being checked at reception.<\/p>\n

More information on 9h Capsule Hotels is available at the official\u00a0website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
